Why Choose Kojic Acid Dipalmitate?
Kojic Acid Dipalmitate is an oil-soluble derivative of Kojic Acid commonly selected for complexion-focused formulations targeting the appearance of uneven tone, dullness and visible discolouration. It is valued by formulators for its compatibility with oil-based systems and its use within carefully designed brightening and refining skincare formulations.
How to Prepare
Kojic Acid Dipalmitate is oil-soluble and should be incorporated into the oil phase of your formulation rather than dissolved in water.
Use at 2–5% of the total formulation. Measure the required amount carefully and add it gradually to a suitable oil phase, mixing thoroughly until evenly incorporated.
Once prepared, it can be incorporated into compatible oil-based or emulsified formulations such as creams, lotions, balms or oils.
Always formulate carefully, follow good cosmetic formulation practice and test the finished product for compatibility and stability before use.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Everything you need to know.
What type of formulations can I use this ingredient in?
The suitable formulation type depends on the individual ingredient and its solubility. Some powders are best suited to water-based formulations, while others should be incorporated into an oil phase.
Always follow the preparation guidance provided on the individual product page before adding the ingredient to serums, lotions, creams, oils or other compatible cosmetic formulations.
How much should I use?
Use at 2–5% of the total formulation, in line with the supplier guidance for the cosmetic ingredients we supply.
Measure carefully and avoid exceeding the recommended usage level. More is not necessarily better and can affect the stability, texture or tolerance of the finished formulation.
Can I combine it with other active ingredients?
Yes, many complexion-focused ingredients can be used together within a carefully designed formulation. Compatibility will depend on factors such as solubility, pH, concentration and the overall formulation system.
When combining multiple active ingredients, formulate carefully and test the finished product for stability and skin compatibility before regular use.
How should I store the powder?
Keep the powder securely sealed in a cool, dry and dark place away from direct sunlight, heat and moisture.
Always use clean, dry utensils when handling the powder and close the packaging promptly after use to help maintain the quality of the raw material.
Why doesn’t Kojic Acid Dipalmitate dissolve in water?
Kojic Acid Dipalmitate is an oil-soluble derivative of Kojic Acid, so it is not intended to dissolve directly in water.
It should instead be incorporated into a suitable oil phase before being added to an oil-based or emulsified cosmetic formulation.
What type of oil phase works best for incorporating it?
Kojic Acid Dipalmitate should be incorporated into a compatible cosmetic oil phase that forms part of your chosen formulation.
The ideal oils, temperature and processing method will depend on the complete formula, so always follow good cosmetic formulation practice and confirm that the finished product remains uniform and stable.
